Finally, An SEO Book That Doesn't Teach Tricks!

Many people think that creating a Website that can be found in the search engines means you have to forfeit a great looking design. Others believe that search engine marketing is all about tricking the engines and fooling directory editors. Shari Thurow's "Search Engine Visibility" explains in clear, concise language why this just isn't so! Today's Internet search engines and directories want to see the same thing as your site visitors -- a Website that clearly states what it has to offer. Shari's done a great job of putting her years of designing search engine friendly sites into words the average Webmaster will understand. Search engine marketing takes one giant leap forward with this book that spells out exactly what you should do (as well as what you shouldn't do) to achieve long-term Website success.
